2FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
CAUTION:
Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty may not cover damage to the fuel
system and any performance problems that
are caused by the use of fuels containing
methanol or fuels containing MTBE (Methyl
Tertiary Butyl Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxy-
gen Content 2.7% weight.)
B010B01A-AATWhat About Gasohol?
Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded gasoline
and 10% ethanol or grain alcohol) may be used
in your Hyundai. However, if your engine devel-
ops driveability problems, the use of 100%
unleaded gasoline is recommended. Fuels with
unspecified quantities of alcohol, or alcohols
other than ethanol, should not be used.
B010A03A-AAT
Use Unleaded Gasoline
Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane
Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91)
or higher must be used in your Hyundai.
If leaded gasoline is used, it will cause the
catalytic converter to become ineffective and
the emission control system to malfunction.
This can also result in increased maintenance
expense.
To avoid accidental use of leaded fuel, the larger
nozzle used with leaded gasoline at service
stations cannot be inserted into the fuel tank
opening of your Hyundai.
CAUTION:o Do not "TOP-OFF" after the first nozzle
shut off when refueling.
o The fuel cap must be tightened at least
3 clicks, otherwise " " light may
illuminate.
B010D01A-AAT
Do Not Use Methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol) should
not be used in your Hyundai. This type of fuel
can reduce vehicle performance and damage
components of the fuel system.

B010E01A-AATGasolines for Cleaner Air
To help contribute to cleaner air, Hyundai rec-
ommends that you use gasolines treated with
detergent additives, which help prevent deposit
formation in the engine. These gasolines will
help the engine run cleaner and enhance per-
formance of the Emission Control System.

SEAT BELT-Driver's 3-Point System with
Emergency Locking Retractor
To Fasten Your Belt
To fasten your seat belt, pull it out of the retractor
and insert the metal tab into the buckle. There
will be an audible "click" when the tab locks into
the buckle.
The seat belt automatically adjusts to the proper
length only after the lap belt portion is adjusted
manually so that it fits snugly around your hips.
If you lean forward in a slow, easy motion, the
belt will extend and let you move around. If there
is a sudden stop or impact, however, the belt will
lock into position. It will also lock if you try to lean
forward too quickly.
B180A01L
NOTE:If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when
the ignition key is in the "ON" position, the
seat belt warning light will flash and the
warning chime will sound for approximately
six seconds.

NOTE:o Both the driver's and front passenger's
pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated
in certain frontal collisions. The pre-
tensioner seat belts can be activated
alone or, where the frontal collision is
severe enough, together with the
airbags.
o When the pre-tensioner seat belts are
activated, a loud noise may be heard and
fine dust, which may appear to be smoke,
may be visible in the passenger com-
partment. These are normal operating
conditions and are not hazardous.
o Although it is harmless, the fine dust
may cause skin irritation and should not
be breathed for prolonged periods. Wash
your hands and face thoroughly after an
accident in which the pre-tensioner seat
belts were activated.
!WARNING:To obtain maximum benefit from a pre-
tensioner seat belt:
1. The seat belt must be worn correctly.
2. The seat belt must be adjusted to the
correct position.
The seat belt pre-tensioner system consists
mainly of the following components.
Their locations are shown in the illustration.

Pre-tensioner Seat Belt (If Installed)
Your Hyundai vehicle is equipped with driver's
and front passenger's pre-tensioner seat belts.
The purpose of the pre-tensioner is to make
sure that the seat belts fit tightly against the
occupant's body in certain frontal collisions.
The pre-tensioner seat belts can be activated
alone or, where the frontal collision is severe
enough, together with the airbags.
When the vehicle stops suddenly, or if the
occupant tries to lean forward too quickly, the
seat belt retractor will lock into position. In
certain frontal collisions, the pre-tensioner will
activate and pull the seat belt into tighter contact
against the occupant's body.

(AIRBAG) SYSTEM (SRS)
!CAUTION:o The control module that activates the
SRS airbag controls the pre-tensioner
seat belt also.
o If there is some malfunction in the pre-
tensioner seat belt circuit, the warning
light will illuminate even if there is no
malfunction in the SRS airbag system. If
the SRS airbag warning light does not
illuminate or illuminates continuously
when the ignition key is turned to "ON",
or if it remains illuminated after blinking
for approximately 6 seconds, or if it
illuminates while the vehicle is being
driven, please have an authorized
Hyundai dealer inspect the pre-tensioner
seat belts and SRS airbag system as
soon as possible.
WARNING:o Pre-tensioners are designed to operate
only one time. After activation, pre-
tensioner seat belts must be replaced.
All seat belts, of any type, should always
be replaced after they have been worn
during a collision.
o The pre-tensioner seat belt assembly
mechanisms become hot during activa-
tion. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat
belt assemblies for several minutes after
they have been activated.
o Do not attempt to inspect or replace the
pre-tensioner seat belts yourself. This
must be done by an authorized Hyundai
dealer.
o Do not strike the pre-tensioner seat belt
assemblies.
o Do not attempt to service or repair the
pre-tensioner seat belt system in any
manner.
o Improper handling of the pre-tensioner
seat belt assemblies, and failure to heed
the warnings to not strike, modify, in-
spect, replace, service or repair the pre-
tensioner seat belt assemblies may lead
to improper operation or inadvertent
activation and serious injury.
o Always wear seat belts when driving or
riding in a motor vehicle.

B240A01GK-GAT
Your Hyundai is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint (Airbag) System. The indications of
the system's presence are the letters "SRS AIR
BAG" embossed on the ornament in the steer-
ing wheel and the passenger's side front panel
pad above the glove box.
The Hyundai SRS consists of airbags installed
under the pad covers in the center of the
steering wheel and the passenger's side front
panel above the glove box. The purpose of the
SRS is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the
front passenger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt system alone, in
case of a frontal impact of sufficient severity.
B240A01GK
Driver's Airbag

o No objects should be placed over or near
the airbag modules on the steering
wheel, instrument panel, and the front
passenger's panel above the glove box,
because any such object could cause
harm if the vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the airbags to deploy.
o If the airbags deploy, they must be re-
placed by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental firing of the airbags or
by rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in
the front passenger seat position. A
child restraint system must never be
placed in the front seat. The infant or
child could be severely injured or killed
by an airbag deployment in case of an
accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat. If older children (teen-
agers and older) must ride in the front
seat, make sure they are always properly
belted and that the seat is moved back as
far as possible.
!WARNING:!
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy
in side-impact, rear-impact or rollover
crashes. In addition, airbags will not
deploy in frontal crashes below the de-
ployment threshold speed.
o The driver should sit back as far as
possible while still maintaining control
of the vehicle. If you are sitting too close
to the airbag, it can cause death or seri-
ous injury when it inflates.
WARNING:

!
NOTE:Be sure to read information about the SRS
on the labels provided on the backside of
the sun visor and in the glove box.
WARNING:o As its name implies, the SRS is designed
to work with, and be supplemental to,
the driver's and the passenger's three
point seat belt systems and is not a
substitute for them. Therefore, your seat
belts must be worn at all times while the
vehicle is in motion. The airbags deploy
only in certain frontal impact conditions
severe enough to cause significant in-
jury to the vehicle occupants.
o The SRS is designed to deploy the
airbags only when an impact is suffi-
ciently severe and when the impact angle
is less than 30° from the forward longi-
tudinal axis of the vehicle and will not
deploy in side, rear or rollover impacts.
Additionally, the airbags will only de-
ploy once. Thus, seat belts must be worn
at all times.
o Front airbags are not intended to deploy
in light collisions in which protection
can be provided by the seat belt alone.
